And More Central

Hello everyone and a warm welcome to my channel, And More Central. Here you will find transport related content from both the virtual world of gaming as well as videos looking at transport in the real world both in the UK and beyond. We have a superb community that I work alongside on our multiplayer livestreams that take place in the virtual world.

I have created a number of projects for OMSI 2 Bus Simulator that you will find here and I continue to work alongside some of the finest developers in helping and testing their projects. In the real world I travel about, testing out new buses, routes and assessing networks from a passenger and industry prospective. I also run my own community bus events group and bring you behind the scenes at events I coordinate and support.

And More Central is a channel where you can be yourself and relax, with regular uploads and group activities, there is something for everyone. So a warm welcome to my channel and I hope you enjoy the uploads!

    My mum was born in Truro and dad was born in Hampshire and these Citaros could be used in Slough or Taunton for example

    This is the reason they have CallConnect, I need to get from Newark to Stapleford (a tiny village in the middle of nowhere), the only bus is a Sleafordian Coaches route SLE5 which is a school bus, this proves how difficult it is to travel around Lincs by bus, WHY DID THEY DO THIS?

    I was told by my bus driver all the B7RLEs are going to school services and the eCitaros are going to the shuttle and the rest of the Keighley bus company and the B7RLEs are replacing the renown’s, condors and the plaxton presidents as they will go for scrap in the upcoming years (2024, 2025, 2026 and 2027) 😊👍

    Do you know who has taken over Dales & District services? Getting really boring of late but won't hold it against you, lacking behind, new Rawcliffe depot in York, East Yorkshire Buses York Local taken on York & Country work, now take over of Proctors coach companies with exceptions.

    Halifax always seems to put their new vehicles into schools which has been a trend since 2018. When B9TLs 37700 - 37703 arrived they were on schools until Summer 2019 where they got swapped for the ALX 400s and then the Enviro 400s were the same case and BL14 Gemini 2s.

Various reasons for this but I do love the 168s (probably my favourite DMU!) Plus the 82 DVT sets are brilliant to ride on. Great video. Hope you had a great time in Cornwall?

    I think I need my earplugs. I have sensitive hearing and there is no way I can take this bus for like two seconds without me crying because of ear pain. I’m surprised Alex survived this bus ride for that long without earplugs, aye man this guy needs the Bluestar 1569 award for surviving very bad noise pollution! 😂
